Bridge Program ACL Injury Prevention
[ACL BRIDGE REHABILITATION]



This program will benefit individuals of all ages and abilities to help regain functional independence. After you are done with physical therapy you are still not ready to return to your sport. This program will help you get there! It bridges the gap between being functional and being ready to play a sport. This program evolved by combining the latest in ACL rehabilitation with Athletic Republic's state-of-the-art equipment and training principals. Each session is personalized to the client's abilities providing a step-by-step progression with each stage becoming more challenging. Athletes train with one of our ACL Bridge Certified Trainers 2 to 3 days per week for 2 months. The primary goals are to evaluate how the original injury occurred, develop a  program to address the pre-disposing injury risk factors and insure ACL injury prevention.

There are 4 major components to the ACL Bridge Program:
 
1.     Generation II Running Treadmill, Forward and Backward
Incline Running.
      Designed to improve overall body conditioning, strength, stability and flexibility, and aid the athlete in relearning proper walking and running biomechanics without the "pounding" of over ground running. Through motor control and strength improvements, backward incline running will functionally train the muscles at sport-specific velocities.
      
2.     Plyometrics.
      Challenges the body to improve its neuromuscular efficiency and body awareness needed for sport or recreational activities.
      
3.     Agility and Multi-Directional Movements.
      Designed to improve body awareness, reinforce proper mechanics, and enhance the neuromuscular pathways for improving sports or work-specific performance.
      
4.     Strength Training.
      This personalized strength program will utilize our unique training equipment to target the hip girdle, hamstrings, quadriceps, abdominals and the entire upper body as well.
